Hello!

I have read that over the counter acne treatments work for some people in varying capacities to treat their problem areas. Has anyone given Proactiv solution a go? I have tried everything else topically and was wondering if it is worth spending the dosh......

Yes, I bought it mostly for my arms before I knew that I had KP. My arm bumps are red and kindof inflamed and definitely clogged, so I thought it would work. Well, I was disappointed. It did not help at all. That's when I decided to do more research and discovered that I have KP, not acne.

As far as my face goes, I didn't have bad acne, but I did have occassional breakouts and many clogged pores. Now Proactive has worked beautifully with my face. I use the cleanser, lotion, and SPF in the AM and I use the cleanser, glycolic acid, and lotion at night. I also use a little almond oil around my eyes to help with dark circles. I am very pleased with my face. Too bad nothing seems to help my KP yet though.
